On Headline Sports podcast with Charlie O:

#1 Charlie, the San Francisco 49ers pass rusher Nick Bosa is still waiting to hear from the NFL whether he would be fined or not by the league for appearing in a live TV shot post game while teammate and quarterback Brock Purdy was being interviewed with teammates tight end George Kittle and running back Isaac Guerendo were standing with sideline reporter Malissa Stark. Bosa in the shot was pointing to his MAGA that was white with gold lettering.

#2 The Las Vegas Raiders are trying to recover after last week’s loss to the Kansas City Chiefs at Allegiant Stadium. The Raiders took a seven point loss 27-20 after the Chiefs picked up some insurance points in the fourth quarter with a field goal and a touchdown after leading the Raiders by just four points 17-13. The Raiders now face the Cincinnati Bengals today the Bengals have won three of their last four games and are banking on quarterback Joe Burrow to deliver last week in the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles Burrow was 26-37 for 234 yards, one touchdown and was intercepted once. Charlie how do you see this match up?

#3 Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stafanski said that quarterback Deshaun Watson is back at the Browns facility after suffering a season ending Achilles injury where Watson had surgery performed after a week 7 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Stafanski said that Watson is rehabbing after a tough surgery and that’s he’s scooting around the building and that Watson plans to attack the rehab.

#4 The New York Jets wide receiver Devante Adams was excited to join his new team and get things started on last Thursday Night Football’s game against the Houston Texans in a 21-13 win. Adams ended up catching a 37 yard pass from quarterback Aaron Rogers for a touchdown his first as a Jet.

#5 Charlie let me read to you a list of Raiders minority owner Tom Brady’s restrictions. #1 Not permitted to be in another team’s facility.#2 Can not attend another team’s practice. #3 Can not attend in-person or virtual broadcast production meetings with coaches or players. #4 Can not publicly criticize officials and other clubs. #5 Must follow the NFL’s gambling policy. Are these rules in place because he’s a co-owner of the Raiders and since he’s part of the management of the club these restrictions are put upon him to avoid a conflict of interest?
